Assuming all these rumors are true, WHAT IS THE REAL REASON FOR THE CUTS?
Seems to be money.
But WT will not close.

True, JW do not swallow overlap, but nevertheless, they see for a fact God's Holy Spirit operative on the WT, FS and JW, and that fact cannot be invalidated with any incorrect interpretation of generation.. -

Cedars leaked letter requested to be taken down by WTBTS
by umbertoecho ini don't know if this is already posted so sorry people if it is.
cedars site has had a request to take down the leaked letter regarding changes to the theocratic ministry school and other issues.. the reason given by wt is that it is a "copyright" issue.
of course this validates the letters authenticity even more.. have a good day or night people.

Village Idiota day ago Are those letters copyrighted?
VI, the point is, that it was a brother that leaked the info, and he is the one responsible for getting the letters published. I doubt very much if WT would go after any JW regardless of what he did.
The site does not get to decide 'copyright,' and that is why the site decided to voluntarily take the letters down.

Why didn't you publish, the governor's address and everywhere that letters calls emails should be sent to.
I suppose that when someone innocent is unjustly killed, the killers or descendants should expect retaliation at some point in time. That is a pattern I have seen by vindictive people.

DMCA is a courtesy notice instead of a lawsuit; It is like a cease and desist notice. I suppose that if a party claims they are injured because of what they believe is copyright infringement, they can a sue for damages. At the very least, it costs money to defend. If a party publishes private documents or copyrighted material, there is a risk of being sued. WT does not work like that, generally, because they usually are dealing with (df) JW, and WT ususally defends against (df)JW but does not want to initiate legal action against a JW, but they could if they wanted to. Other religious orders are very orthodox and they will come after anyone that violates their privacy. They will get you, and that is why nobody fools around with them. And when they do, they have been known to pay.

Ironically, 20/20 vision sees Christ for sure. But cannot be so far away. Something should hit from Oct 2015- Nisan 14, 2016. WT hinted 2017. Or JW are going to be looking at a bicentennial.

Assets and any income produced by such or by WT investments should not be used to pay for WT operations. In fact, it should not be touched at all except to generate more money. All WT operational expenses, salaries, purchases of materials, etc. should come from donations. May broadcast implies Wt has had to dig into its assets to pay for operations. More revenues from donations is the only solution. Mormons get a lot more money from their tithes. No matter how you cut it WT needs more voluntary donation to pay for its operations. -

Back in May 2015, S.Lett, GB, let JW know that WT is loosing money. He said that more is going out than coming in. I don't think he was lying. Usually, a business cannot stay open for long if it looses money. The solution to the crisis is to make more money or to drastically cut expenses or both.
With the JW org up, I suppose that a lot of people do not realize that the downloaded lit is not Mcdonald's napkins. People's hearts should move them to donate. There's a lot of lit being downloaded and there should correspondingly be a lot of donations coming in, seems that there isn't.
WT does not tithe its members but trusts that God will move the hearts of people to donate and also trusts that God will back the WT financially, regardless. The WT produces Bibles and Bible commentaries; Tangibly, that is what WT has to offer. People need to realize that WT cannot sell these goods without being taxed -and so the donation arrangement as everybody knows. As it turns out, the money is not coming in in-spite of the literature being taken. With the large amounts of literature being taken in printed form and in electronic format, the corresponding donations should keep the WT in business and in great financial shape. But that is not the case., the money that is donated does not cover WT expenses according to Let. The WT has assets, but they will dwindle little by little with no income unless donations to backup the WT start pouring in. In the meantime, WT needs to cut all non essential spending as the first step to survival.
